adding a retractable side step

[patriceboivin]

Some later models have a retractable side step, do you find it useful?

I wonder if it might be possible to install one on an older Delica model which didn't come with one.

Might not be worth the hassle though, if the step isn't all that useful.

Just throw a plastic step stool in the back

My van is raised 2 inches so the electric side step is handy sometimes. Mostly I think it's useful for old people getting in and out. LOL

Exactly; last week my seventy-something mother had a bit of trouble exiting the vehicle, because the side step doesn't extend outward.

I reminded her every time about the long handle on the right when you exit, that helped her a bit.

Sounds like people don't really notice the side step though. Oh well.

looks like this person retrofitted the side step to the older model

I have thought about this also. If you come up with anything, keep us posted!!

I'm heading home this weekend and I'll take a look at my S2 and see where the electrical connections are made and compare it to my S1, the wiring harness might already accommodate it and have some spare plugs, it might be plug and play

It would be cool if you could attach the auto steps that are made for small SUV's and Pickup trucks.
